The series explores a woman's journey to reclaim her sexual identity and personal fulfillment, challenging traditional marital expectations and societal norms for women. Its left-leaning rating is primarily driven by its championing of individual female agency and sexual liberation as the solution to the protagonist's unfulfillment.

The series features a visibly diverse cast, including significant roles for Black and Asian actors, and an Iranian-American lead, without explicitly recasting traditionally white roles. The narrative explores themes of female desire and self-discovery, but it does not explicitly critique or negatively portray traditional identities (white, male) as a central theme.
